Assemblyman Jeff Stone (R-Greenfield) has been pestering the Milwaukee Election Commission to report how many people registered at the polls on November 2. Initially, they reported to him on Wednesday that about 8,000 people registered at the polls that day, out of about 255,000 votes cast, about 380,000 voters registered as of the September election (and an estimated 20,000-30,000 registrants between that point and the cutoff point for preregistration), and 565,000 residents (including about 430,000 adults) in the city. Now, they report a few VERY disturbing things:
Given the gravity of this problem, lets not get side tracked into this definitional quandry. I am a WI voter and was so concerned about this I volunteered to watch the polls. My state reps are going to continually hear from me.
I would imagine there will eventually have to be a national way of cross referencing the list much the same way a suspended DL in one state gets suspended in all states.
As long as they only vote once, you are right college students should vote. However there was a publicized instance of a Milwaukee student who said he voted 3 times in 2000.
This is disgusting! Where's Randi Rhodes and ... oh. I forgot. Kerry won that state!
This is disgusting! Where's Ted Kennedy and ... oh. I forgot. Kerry won that state!
Besides, none of us cheese heads want to be associated with those lousy flatlanders.
We're going thru the same thing in WA State. We have evidence of felons voting, but the dems want to squelch it. I thought they were for the "rule of law" too. Thank God I'm a democrat no more!
If the republicans could get voter fraud out of Philly, Detroit, and now Milwaukee I think they would have three states go red next time.
"How about this: Pass a federal law abolishing same day registration"
I absolutely agree! I grew up in WI but have lived in MN for over 25 years.... and MN also has same day voter registrations, which is an open invitation to fraud (DemonRAT fraud that is). I am also absolutely convinced that if our weeny Repub party officials & legislators (state & fed levels) screamed long & hard enough about this, we could implement the reforms needed to prevent this from happening in 2006 & 2008 and other future elections. I believe the DemonRATS are raising all sorts of false allegations in states like Ohio & Florida to conceal their massive vote fraud in dozens of places, like currently stealing the WA guv election unless Dino Rossi can succeed in his court challenge for a revote, and they committed massive voter fraud in Milwaukee, Mpls, Philadelphia and other major (DemonRAT) controlled cities. With every election the DemonRATS are becoming more & more emboldened by their ballot stuffing antics & phony votes and illegal voters. I believe we have a potential window in the next 4 years to fix many of the more flagrant & widespread abuses. Contact your Repub state & fed officials to put pressure on them to get this fixed NOW! And we need our Repub officials to STOP being such polite RINO Repub weenies and to get aggressive & hard ball to combat this! In this area we need to copy some (not all) of the nasty chapter from the DemonRATS playbook!
NY Times front page tomorrow, right?< sarcasm on >
Good Luck, and never give in!!
felons can not vote in wisconsin.
Well, they can't vote LEGALLY in wisconsin, anyway.
The constitution puts 'voting' in the states hand. Voting is not a federal issue. Fix your state.
It wouldn't be the latter (Illinois has higher registration fees and northeast Illinois is in the same ozone "non-attainment" area as southeast Wisconsin).
Once felons have paid their debt in full (no more prison/jail/probation), they automatically have their voting rights restored.
